Metallicity Gradients in Modern Cosmological Simulations II: The Role of Bursty Versus Smooth Feedback at High-Redshift

Alex M. Garcia, Paul Torrey, Aniket Bhagwat +22

The distribution of gas-phase metals within galaxies encodes the impact of stellar feedback on galactic evolution. At high-redshift, when galaxies are rapidly assembling, feedback-…

The THESAN-ZOOM project: The Hidden Neighbours of OI Absorbers during Reionization

Giulia Pruto, Laura Keating, Rahul Kannan +9

Metal absorbers represent a powerful probe of galaxy feedback and reionization, as highlighted by both observational and theoretical results showing an increased abundance of low-i…

An improved model for the effect of correlated Si-III absorption on the one-dimensional Lyman- forest power spectrum

Ke Ma, James S. Bolton, Vid Irsic +2

We present an analysis of Si III absorption and its effect on the 1D Ly forest power spectrum using the Sherwood-Relics hydrodynamical simulation suite. In addition to oscillati…

High-redshift AGN population in radiation-hydrodynamics simulations

Teodora-Elena Bulichi, Oliver Zier, Aaron Smith +7

High-redshift active galactic nuclei (AGN) have long been recognized as key probes of early black hole growth and galaxy evolution. However, modeling this population remains diffic…

The THESAN-ZOOM project: Mystery N/O more -- uncovering the origin of peculiar chemical abundances and a not-so-fundamental metallicity relation at

William McClymont, Sandro Tacchella, Aaron Smith +15

We present an analysis of metallicities and chemical abundances at in the THESAN-ZOOM simulations. We find that smoothly curved gas-phase and stellar mass-metallicity rela…

Overmassive black holes in the early Universe can be explained by gas-rich, dark matter-dominated galaxies

William McClymont, Sandro Tacchella, Xihan Ji +12

JWST has revealed the apparent evolution of the black hole (BH)-stellar mass (-$M_\rm{\ast}$) relation in the early Universe, while remaining consistent with the BH-…
